Greetings from Pike's Place

We have had another nice full day with kids and pets, so once again I will post the chronology in photos with very short captions and talk more about it when I post more pictures later on!

2021-09-25 11.14.32 
We had breakfast with Adam and Katherine, then drove into Seattle to meet Daniel and Cahaya at the Seattle Art Museum, which has this exhibit about Monet, painters at Etretat, and how Monet's paintings there transformed his career

Here is the family in front of John Grade's Middle Fork, looking like a Western Hemlock tree... 
 
2021-09-25 12.26.11 
...and in the porcelain room, which had lovely examples from all over 
 
2021-09-25 13.46.14 
From there we walked to Pike's Place Market for lunch 
 
2021-09-25 14.26.59A 
There were lots of people inside, so we ate sandwiches and soup from the Alaskan Sourdough Bakery outside Miners Landing... 
 
2021-09-25 14.05.46 
...where we had great views of the Seattle Great Wheel at Pier 57... 
 
2021-09-25 14.17.00A 
...and inside I got to pose for very tasteful photos with figures from Seattle history like this one

We went back to Adam and Katherine's house to walk Pepper and Theo, with whom we saw many bunnies, though we were so full from lunch that instead of bringing in food from a restaurant, we went to Safeway and had assorted sandwiches and burgers
 
 2021-09-25 20.14.51 
And Theo was extremely helpful with food preparation and table supervision 
 
Our Saturday has just ended, insanely enough, with an owl attack. The wild suburbs!
